HOPE, Maine — While jogging on a familiar, overgrown, wooded
trail near her home on a recent warm afternoon, Rachel Borch
thought to herself, “what a beautiful day.”

In the midst of appreciating the weather and scenery, she looked
ahead and noticed a raccoon obstructing the narrow foot path,
baring its tiny teeth.

Suddenly, it began “bounding” toward her, Borch recalled
Wednesday afternoon during an interview at her home on Hatchet
Mountain Road in Hope.

“I knew instantly it had to be rabid,” said Borch, who remembers
ripping out her headphones and dropping her phone on the ground.
The raccoon eventually attached itself to her thumb, and Borch
found that she couldn’t get the animal to release its grip. When
she noticed that she had dropped her phone in a puddle, she
realized she could drown the raccoon to free herself. So…she did.

“With my thumb in its mouth, I just pushed its head down into the
muck,” Borch said.

With the animal belly-up, she held its head under water. “It was
still struggling and clawing at my arms. It wouldn’t let go of my
thumb,” she said.

Borch said she held it there for what felt like an eternity until
finally it stopped struggling and “its arms sort of of fell to
the side, its chest still heaving really slowly.”

It is an allegory of Trump attacking Mueller.
